| THE GATEWAY CENTER, located on Water St. off Foote Ave. just below WCA hospital. It's also the home of several other non-profits | Largest of our rooms on the second floor of the Gateway Center (formerly known as the Chautauqua Hardware building) | A smaller room for an office; the wood floors are strong and the light streams in those big windows | Susan S. checks out some of the other rooms that will become exhibit or workshop space. Note the high ceilings throughout! | BIGGIE BOXES: Created for our room at the 2006 Scandinavian Festival, to get a sense of the shrunken "Nils" | ||||
